How Are These Techniques Adapted for Different Age Groups?
The application of manual techniques varies significantly with the age and developmental stage of the child. For infants, techniques are often very gentle and may include soft tissue massage and passive range-of-motion exercises. For toddlers, the techniques may incorporate more dynamic activities that blend play with therapy. For older children and adolescents, the techniques can be more intensive and may include strength training exercises and more complex joint mobilization techniques.
